Miss Black United States 2005

Miss Black United States 2005
Posted By: Deidra Moore on June 29, 2005



It was a Father's Day to remember for Dexter Sapp whose daughter Dextria
Sapp won the title of Miss Black United States 2005- 2006 on June 19, 2005
in Atlanta. Dextria, along with thirty other contestants, competed in a
week of competition for this prestigious title. Her attendants included
first- Rachelle Cain, Miss Black California, second- Melissa McDaniels, Miss
Black Tar heel State, third- Ashiya Prince- Miss Black Florida, and fourth-
Angelena Washington- Miss Black Southern States. During the week of
competition contestants competed in a fitness challenge, interview,
swimwear, evening wear, casual wear, and talent.

Dextria will spend her year reign promoting her platform Child Abuse
Awareness.



Her first appearance was with Cathy Truett, founder of
Chick-Fi-La, discussing his involvement with abused children and The
WinShape Centre(r) Foundation

Dextria is no stranger to the spotlight. Just last month she was a runner
up on NBC's "Fear Factor: Best Friends." She was also Miss Black Louisiana
US and a former Miss Louisiana Contestant.

The Miss Black United States Scholarship Pageant is one of the largest
pageantry sources of scholarship for African American Women. In 2006, the
pageant system will be expanding their pageants to all African American
females, ages 13 to 45, with a Teen, Miss, Ms., Mrs., and Plus Size
division. For more information please visit
